But anon those are valid ways to describe card with low end torque.

Case in point. 350z: 240 hp to the wheels while 3700 lbs fat. However 300lbs of torque at the very beginning of the power curve.

>with low end torque
>almost exclusively used to describe shit slow strung out 4 pots with no power anywhere

See: Clarkson and every wannabe reviewer that tries to be like him (all of them) describing Miatas, old Triumphs, anything made by Alfa Romeo, etc.

>it just gets up and moves

What did he mean by this?

None of those cars you mentioned have low end torque
>>
>>16150565
Yeah, that's the point- Nobody uses "peppy," "zippy," "eager," etc. to describe cars with low end torque- Not to mention they're wishy washy buzzwords that don't describe things in any meaningful quality you fucking retard- As evidenced by people like Clarkson using them to describe the exact opposite of what you claim to be suitable descriptors for.

350z is <3300lb not 3700

>torque
Without RPM torque is meaningless.
Hey dig this, a cyclist can generate more torque than a 600cc Supersport motorcycle. They must accelerate like mad eh
